Setup Guide

This appliance is intended for installation in restricted areas only. Initial setup and

maintenance should be performed by qualified personnel.

Power down the appliance following the operating system’s proper power down

procedure using the I/O Power Button on the front panel. Unplug the AC power cord

before servicing.

To avoid electrical shock, check the power cords as follows:

■ This product is to be installed in Restricted Access Location only.

■ Use the exact type of power cords required.

■ Use power cord(s) that came with safety certifications.

■ Power cord(s) must comply with AC voltage requirements in your region.

■ The power cord plug cap must have an electrical current rating that is at least

125% of the electrical current rating of this product.

■ The power cord plug cap that plugs into the AC receptacle on the power supply

must be an IEC 320, sheet C13, type female connector.

■ Plug the power cord(s) into a socket that is properly grounded before turning on

the power.

Required operating conditions for the appliance are -

Temperature: 10 to 35

C (50 to 95

F).

Humidity, non-condensing: 8 to 90%.

DISPOSING OF BATTERY BACKUP UNITS - IF APPLICABLE

If the BBU is damaged in any way, toxic chemicals may be released. The material in

the battery pack contains heavy metals that can contaminate the environment.

Federal, state, and local regulations prohibit the disposal of rechargeable atteries in

public landfills. Be sure to recycle the old battery packs properly. Comply with all

applicable battery disposal and hazardous material handling laws and regulations in

the country or other jurisdiction where you are using the BBU.

Risk of explosion if the battery is installed upside down or is replaced by an

incorrect type. Replace it only with the same or equivalent type recommended by

the manufacturer. Dispose of used batteries according to the instructions.

Disconnect the power supply at the circuit breaker before accessing any components.

Turning off the system power supply switch does not reduce the risk of electrical

shock from the power supply terminal block.

■ To prevent the unit from overheating, never install the appliance in an enclosed area

that is not properly ventilated or cooled. For proper airflow, keep the front and back

sides of the appliance clear of obstructions and away from the exhaust of other

equipment.

■ Be aware of the locations of the power switches on the chassis and in the room, so

you can disconnect the power supply if an accident occurs.

■ Take extra precautionary measures when working with high voltage components. Do

not work alone.

■ Before removing or installing main system components, be sure to disconnect the

power first. Turn off the system before you disconnect the power supply.

■ Use only one hand when working with powered-on electrical equipment to avoid

possible electrical shock.

■ Use rubber mats specifically designed as electrical insulators when working with

computer systems.

■ The power supply or power cord must include a grounding plug and must be

plugged into grounded outlets.

Electric Static Discharge (ESD) can damage electronic components. To prevent

damage to your system board, it is important to handle it very carefully. The following

measures can prevent ESD damage to critical components.

■ Use a grounded wrist strap designed to prevent static discharge.

■ Keep all components and printed circuit boards (PCBs) in their antistatic bags until

ready for use.

■ ouch a grounded metal object before removing the board from the antistatic bag.

■ Do not let components or PCBs come into contact with your clothing, which may

retain a charge even if you are wearing a wrist strap.

■ Handle a board by its edges only; do not touch its components, peripheral chips,

memory modules or contacts.

■ When handling chips or modules, avoid touching their pins.

■ Put the motherboard and peripherals back into their antistatic bags when not in use.

■ For grounding purposes, make sure your computer chassis provides excellent

conductivity between the power supply, case, mounting fasteners and motherboard.

ELEVATED OPERATING AMBIENT

TEMPERATURE - If installed in a

closed or multi-unit rack assembly, the

operating ambient temperature of the

rack environment may be greater than

room ambient temperature. Therefore,

consideration should be given to installing

the equipment in an environment

compatible with the maximum ambient

temperature (Tma) specified by the

manufacturer. Always keep the rack’s

front door and all panels and components

on the appliances closed when not

servicing to maintain proper cooling.

REDUCED AIR FLOW - Installation of

the equipment in a rack should be such

Verify that the ship kit includes a power

cord, the screws and the rack clips (shown

below) that you will need to install the

appliance in your rack. Use the hardware

supplied with your specific rack if different

from the hardware supplied in this kit.

that the amount of air flow required for

safe operation of the equipment is not

compromised. Leave enough clearance,

approximately 25 inches in the front, and

30 inches in the back of the rack to enable

you to access appliance components and

allow for sufficient air flow.

CIRCUIT OVERLOADING -

Consideration should be given to the

connection of the equipment to the

supply circuit and the effect that

overloading of the circuits might have on

overcurrent protection and supply wiring.

Appropriate consideration of equipment

nameplate ratings should be used when

addressing this concern.

MECHANICAL LOADING - Mounting

of the equipment in the rack should be

such that a hazardous condition is not

achieved due to uneven mechanical

loading. ALL RACKS MUST BE

MOUNTED SECURELY. Ensure that all

leveling jacks or stabilizers are properly

attached to the rack. If installing multiple

appliances in a rack, make sure the

overall loading for each branch circuit

does not exceed the rated capacity. Do

not slide more than one appliance out

from the rack at a time. Extending more

than one appliance at a time may result in

the rack becoming unstable. Install your

appliance in the lower part of the rack

because of its weight and also for ease in

accessing appliance components.

RELIABLE EARTHING - Reliable

earthing of rack-mounted equipment

should be maintained. Particular attention

should be given to supply connections

other than direct connections to the

branch circuit (e.g. use of power strips).

Install near appropriate AC outlets, and

Ethernet hubs or individual jacks. Be sure

to install an AC Power Disconnect for the

entire rack assembly. The Power

Disconnect must be clearly marked.

Ground the rack assembly properly to

avoid electrical shock.
